🧵New Anthropic Fellows research: We studied mechanisms of "introspective awareness" in LLMs.

LLMs can sometimes detect steering vectors injected into their residual stream. But is this worthy of being called introspection, or attributable to some uninteresting confound?👇 Image
We use the setup from Lindsey (2025): inject a steering vector, then ask the model: "Do you detect an injected thought? [detection] If so, what is the injected thought about? [identification]"

Our experiments are on open-source 🤖: Gemma3-27B, OLMo-3.1-32B, and Qwen3-235B.
First, we show that the behavior is robust: across diverse prompts and dialogue formats, detection maintains a 0% false positive rate (FPR) with moderate true positive rates (TPR) for both Gemma3-27B and Qwen3-235B. Image

1/ Ukraine is launching a new, agile system for rapid military deployment of new technology; Russia, not so much so. Pro-Kremlin warblogger Vladimir Romanov sarcastically highlights the differences between the Russian and Ukrainian systems. ⬇️ Image
2/ Romanov notes how Ukraine is "systematically streamlining the path of technological developments to the front lines":

"The [Ukrainian] government, at the recommendation of the Ministry of Defence, is launching a new model for purchasing innovative weapons for the army."
3/ "The Ministry of Defence now has the authority to quickly procure innovative products through a simplified procedure, and combat units will test them and decide on their effectiveness.

Solutions proven in combat are eligible for inclusion in procurement requirements.

How do LLMs do CoT reasoning internally?

In our new #ACL2026 paper, we show that reasoning unfolds as a structured trajectory in representation space. Correct and incorrect paths diverge, and we use this to predict correctness before the answer and correct errors mid-flight.
1/ Image
Each reasoning step occupies a distinct region in representation space, and these regions become increasingly linearly separable with layer depth. This structure generalizes across tasks and answer formats.

2/ Image
Trajectories for correct and incorrect reasoning start out nearly identical but diverge systematically at late steps. Late-step trajectory features predict final-answer correctness with AUC 0.87 - before the answer is generated.

"The pursuit of this improper investigation is a clear abuse of discretion." Judge Boasberg just got slapped down...again.

The walls are closing in on his crusade to jail Trump officials for DEPORTING Venezualan terrorists.

It's clear: time to impeach Rogue Judge Boasberg. 🧵 Image
Image
To review: last March, Judge Boasberg forced himself onto the "turn the planes around" case—just a few days after trying to foment a constitutional crisis at a Judicial Conference meeting.

He has spent the past year trying to jail prosecutors and cabinet Secretaries. Image
Today, the D.C. Circuit issued an opinion, once again, in the appeal on Boasberg's attempt (extrajurisdictionally) to hold officials in contempt.

The Court found Boasberg's "inquest" was both wrong on the law and a violation of our Separation of Powers.

Let's break it down. Image

Rahul took a ₹60,00,000 home loan in 2020 for 20 years at 9% interest.

He paid it off in just 11 years and saved ₹30,60,475 in interest.

That’s 44% less interest. Same loan. Same bank.

Here are the 2 hacks he used 🧵👇
[1] First, the truth about home loans.

After paying EMIs for 10 full years, Rahul still owed ₹42.6L to the bank.

Only ₹17.4L of the actual loan was cleared.
[2] Hack 1: Pay one extra EMI every year.

Rahul's EMI was ₹53,984.

Every bonus month, he paid one extra. That's it.

Just this one habit: ↳ Loan closed 44 months early ↳ Saved ₹14.85L in interest

One extra payment a year. Nothing more.

Why does the western “left” not get this they linked the Black struggle of the 60’s to LGBT liberation. In order to make an individuals identity the focus of politics and erase concrete material gains for the working class! All that was gained was gay marriage. What is next? Image
What’s next is more turning inward to identity ex. trans 🏳️‍⚧️ and fat people and furries and any kind of alternative way people choose to identify. When this is the parameters to wage revolutionary political struggle then this is what you get.
If you do not make it a collective struggle with material demands and a mass line. It is just vague phrases like liberation and freedom with virtue signaling symbols 🏳️‍⚧️ that all placate individuals whims and fancies!

I've lived in Switzerland. I've incorporated there. I've walked the lakeside in Zug at 8pm wondering where everyone went.

250 millionaires a month are moving to Switzerland. Most end up in Zurich or Geneva.

For many it works. But not for all.

I asked friends living there, compared it with the data and assembled this guide. I came to the conclusion there are two approaches to Switzerland for most of us.

A practical and unfiltered Swissmaxing thread 🇨🇭

🧵Image

Many love the stability, the family life, the capacity of working remotely while immersed in nature.

In the end we all want two things: low taxes and a place where your daughter can walk at night safely.

The baseline: Switzerland has 0% capital gains tax on private investments. Federal level. Every canton.

Everything below is about optimizing on top of that.

Then there's the lump-sum tax, which can also change the math if you're a HNWI. More on that later.

Let's dive into it:Image

1/ Zug 🇨🇭

"All roads lead to Zug." Zug is a beautiful lake town at the foot of the Alps. Clean air, crystal water, mountains in every direction. The old town is charming. Lakeside restaurants where you sit and watch the sunset over the Rigi.

The train station is so clean you could eat off the floor. Everything works. Everything is safe. Kids walk to school alone.

Zug has the lowest corporate tax in Switzerland (11.85%). The administration works for you. Setting up a company, dealing with authorities, the system serves you. One of the few places on earth where that's true.

That's the beauty of canton-competition in Switzerland: cantons market themselves to attract you. It makes the whole system work.Image

Did you know?

the souls in Barzakh remember their loved ones and sometimes, when you miss them, they might be missing you too?
Sometimes, when your heart aches for someone who’s gone…
It’s not just you missing them.
It might be their soul in Barzakh remembering you.

“And behind them is a barrier (Barzakh) until the Day they are resurrected.”
— Qur’an, 23:100
Barzakh isn’t emptiness, it’s the unseen realm between this life and the next.
A world of rest, remembrance, and divine peace. Souls there are conscious, aware, and capable of love.
Because love doesn’t die, it simply changes world

It's a myth that egg freezing doesn't work. It works extremely well for women who freeze young. It has low success rates for women in their 40s and late 30s, when fertility has already declined significantly.

- Women who freeze enough of their eggs in their twenties have the same success rate using those eggs later as they would have had using them fresh in their twenties: 85-90%.
-Women generally freeze too few eggs and too late (median age: 37). This is why overall success rates reported in papers are low.
- Women's fertility does not drop off rapidly after age 35. That's a myth caused by faulty data. The decline is earlier and more linear.
- Clinics in Spain are significantly cheaper but just as good or better than British or American ones in success rates. I got my eggs frozen in Valencia last week.
- Clinic choice matters a lot. Average success rates can vary between 25% to more than 60% probability of live birth per embryo transfer for the worst and best clinics, respectively.

worksinprogress.co/issue/were-fre…

@_revoluzia_ and I are both in our late 20s, and both decided to get our eggs frozen, so that we could definitely have the number of children we wanted, regardless of where life takes us. Recent technological improvements make egg and embryo freezing an effective 'fertility insurance'.

We share our lessons from the process in a new article for Works in Progress.Image
Curious about the biological processes that explain the plots below? The article covers them too.

Female reproductive aging is all about the egg! There are two important eggy variables that matter in this regard, and which decline with age: egg quality and egg quantity. Image
On egg quantity: Women are born with all the eggs they will ever have, each sitting in a protective sac called a follicle. Together, primordial follicles form the ovarian reserve. The antral follicle count is a good proxy for ovarian reserve. Its decline w/ age shown👇 Image
